For me, it would have to be a giant blue or white spruce. Tuck into it, and they will never see you with so many limbs. You can trim a hole for the stand and be completely concealed from ground. Great smell too!

I put my stand in a walnut tree once, that was a big mistake. I hada lump on my head for a week[:@]

When those walnuts hit your stand, man to they make noise
That explains alot!

A nice tall oak. Besides it being a wonderfully sturdy tree, deer like them, and the acorns cover a bit of your scent.

A fat straight tall one with no limbs for 25' and a good back ground when using my climber I like a thick pine, we have tons of those. There is also something about a sycamore than turns my crank also.

Tree type is not as important as cover. Here is acherry tree. I love this tree because of how well I am hidden. I really like 3 trucks if I can find one.

Germ is right , the type of is not important.
A real good tree for me to place a stand should have enough limbs to provide good cover and break up my outline.

I prefer the tree where the deer are! lol

Actually, I prefer oaks, but I'll take what I can get.
